These are the same people that have not worked a day in their life and expect a welfare check. People that come here and contribute nothing but to further burden our society. Granted there are people that come here and do their part and work hard, pay taxes, contribute. There are also people that were born here and do the same things to burden us. This is all first hand knowledge not conjecture again based on my line of work.

Part of my problem with America is that so many people are given everything. There are so many lazy SOBs out there that sit around and collect a check paid for by those that work their rears off.
I grew up watching my Grandparents and Parents work until they couldn't go anymore to have enough money to both survive and have a little on the side to spend. All the while those with no jobs are sitting around collection social security (because they are too fat to work, yep), welfare (again because they are too lazy or fat to get up and move around), and disability (again too fat to work). Maybe what America needs is a swift kick to the nuts and collapse to absolute nothing. Maybe then we can get back to our roots and have some pride in both what we make as well as pride in others that live here.
Too many people in America will believe anything that is told to them and even see questioning the government as being non-patriotic or against America. To me, there is nothing more patriotic than to question the government and its policies.
